Is the kernel trying to eaves drop on someone? Not without assistance, most likely ;-). One link is to the inside network and the other is to static ip address that is assigned but as yet has not been configured on the router to receive requests from outside. I admit, I am learning at this point. I've been watching the router security log and have seen just in the last week (as long as it has had the static ip's assigned) several hundred broadcast amplification attempts blocked. And I have been reading my root mail and am now interested in a tutorial or some published specifics about how to interpret these messages. I'm running v6 release on AMD64. I'm setting up to host a web site. thanks in advance. JK PS in the mean time I will be going through what I have already. Generally, promiscuous mode is pretty much what you have guessed ... used in network analysis. Software such as bpf(4), and higher level apps such as netgraph, tcpdump, ethereal, etc. use promiscuous mode to grab network traffic. So, the first thing you ask yourself is, have I (or anyone allowed to be root) used any of this type of software? There might be other explanations, but I'm not suitably prepared to address them. Kevin Kinsey There are 2 factors that bear directly on this situation: I am the only one who uses these machines on the inside network. I have not been able to get into the web site from out side (so I presume no one else can either) For this reason it appears that the kernel may be doing security audits based on, possibly, suspicious events. But sis0 is the inside network interface. If I read the time correctly, I.E. 03 being 3 o'clock in the morning, this machine is the only one beside the router and a n.a.s device that are running. And this is the first time in the eight weeks total that this machine has been operational, that I have seen this message. Could the phone co be 'phishing' around? (SBC). Anyhow that's why I questioned the phone co's $250 installation charge, I told them I know how to set up the network and DNS stuff and was concerned about the possibility of a technician putting a root kit on my system. As it turned out, I had to let him install their router because he couldn't get mine to work (Zoom xv5) I have a Mac OSX machine that has been assigned one of the initial static ip's. It also has 2 interfaces the inside interface connects to the same network the web server is on. But I don't leave the Mac on continuously. When the technician set up the router it was using DCHP to assign the ip. I noticed it change the host name as reflected in the bash shell command line prompt. So as to their scruples I can only hope that there isn't some proprietary gadget running on the router that sniffs around on remote provocation. This might serve as a heads up to anyone with a similar situation.

Re: hi
Cheza, This is almost certainly a sendmail problem. You don't say how your mail routing is supposed to work. Is, for instance, your sendmail meant to deliver the mail locally on the same machine? Does sendmail have to talk to another mail transfer agent to deliver the mail to another machine? It might be the case that your sendmail is not configured to: 1. Receive mail from the address you specify in php.ini/mail() 2. Listen on the correct ports (25) But I would expect to see an error displayed. You need to see whether the mail queue is filling up within sendmail. Quite possibly your sendmail queue is filling up but mails are being blocked by another server. Have you looked at the sendmail.mc or freebsd.mc file and reconstructed the sendmail.cf files using m4?

Re: postfix smtp_sasl_auth
Thanks for everyone's help. I have tried various things to get postfix running again. I was confused by 'make config' not working, but Paul explained that so I did make deinstall clean make install clean But that failed because I had the wrong mysql version which was required by dovecote. I deinstalled and installed both dovecote and mysql and restored all the config files I could think of and now I get the following message in maillog Apr 21 10:59:06 ** dovecot: imap-login: Login: user=acurtis, method=PLAIN, rip=128.33.80.129, lip=192.168.1.100, TLS Apr 21 10:59:58 ** postfix/smtp[957]: fatal: open database sasl_passwd.db: No such file or directory Apr 21 10:59:59 ** postfix/master[650]: warning: process /usr/local/libexec/postfix/smtp pid 957 exit status 1 Apr 21 10:59:59 ** postfix/master[650]: warning: /usr/local/libexec/postfix/smtp: bad command startup -- throttling I tried postmap hash:sasl_passwd and reloading postfix, but get the same messages. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

you should check out the fbsd/firewall pfSense. it has exactly what your talking about built in, and easy to configure. i could go on and on all day about how great that firewall is... but you should check it out yourself. www.pfsense.org its built on 6.0. jonathan List, In a branch office, I've got two ADSL lines setup (with two different ISPs) - one of them are supposed to work as backup line, but since it is a ADSL flat fee line, I was wondering if there's a way of setting up some sort of a trunk with FreeBSD, so I can make use of the extra bandwith.

How to get best results from FreeBSD-questions
How to get the best results from FreeBSD questions. === Last update $Date: 2005/08/10 02:21:44 $ This is a regular posting to the FreeBSD questions mailing list. If you got it in answer to a message you sent, it means that the sender thinks that at least one of the following things was wrong with your message: - You left out a subject line, or the subject line was not appropriate. - You formatted it in such a way that it was difficult to read. - You asked more than one unrelated question in one message. - You sent out a message with an incorrect date, time or time zone. - You sent out the same message more than once. - You sent an 'unsubscribe' message to FreeBSD-questions. If you have done any of these things, there is a good chance that you will get more than one copy of this message from different people. Read on, and your next message will be more successful. This document is also available on the web at http://www.lemis.com/questions.html. = Contents: I:Introduction II: How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions III: Should I ask -questions or -hackers? IV: How to submit a question to FreeBSD-questions V:How to answer a question to FreeBSD-questions I: Introduction === This is a regular posting aimed to help both those seeking advice from FreeBSD-questions (the newcomers), and also those who answer the questions (the hackers). Note that the term hacker has nothing to do with breaking into other people's computers. The correct term for the latter activity is cracker, but the popular press hasn't found out yet. The FreeBSD hackers disapprove strongly of cracking security, and have nothing to do with it. In the past, there has been some friction which stems from the different viewpoints of the two groups. The newcomers accused the hackers of being arrogant, stuck-up, and unhelpful, while the hackers accused the newcomers of being stupid, unable to read plain English, and expecting everything to be handed to them on a silver platter. Of course, there's an element of truth in both these claims, but for the most part these viewpoints come from a sense of frustration. In this document, I'd like to do something to relieve this frustration and help everybody get better results from FreeBSD-questions. In the following section, I recommend how to submit a question; after that, we'll look at how to answer one. II: How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions == When you subscribed to FreeBSD-questions, you got a welcome message from [EMAIL PROTECTED] In this message, amongst other things, it told you how to unsubscribe. Here's a typical message: Welcome to the freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list! If you ever want to unsubscribe or change your options (eg, switch to or from digest mode, change your password, etc.), visit your subscription page at: http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/options/freebsd-questions/[EMAIL PROTECTED] (obviously, substitute your mail address for [EMAIL PROTECTED]). You can also make such adjustments via email by sending a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word 'help' in the subject or body (don't include the quotes), and you will get back a message with instructions. You must know your password to change your options (including changing the password, itself) or to unsubscribe. Normally, Mailman will remind you of your freebsd.org mailing list passwords once every month, although you can disable this if you prefer. This reminder will also include instructions on how to unsubscribe or change your account options. There is also a button on your options page that will email your current password to you. Here's the general information for the list you've subscribed to, in case you don't already have it: FREEBSD-QUESTIONS User questions This is the mailing list for questions about FreeBSD. You should not send how to questions to the technical lists unless you consider the question to be pretty technical. Normally, unsubscribing is even simpler than the message suggests: you don't need to specify your mail ID unless it is different from the one which you specified when you subscribed. If Majordomo replies and tells you (incorrectly) that you're not on the list, this may mean one of two things: 1. You have changed your mail ID since you subscribed. That's where keeping the original message from majordomo comes in handy. For example, the sample message above shows my mail ID as [EMAIL PROTECTED] Since then, I have changed it to [EMAIL PROTECTED] If I were to try to remove [EMAIL PROTECTED] from the list, it would fail: I would have to specify the name with which I joined. 2.

The Complete FreeBSD: errata and addenda
The trouble with books is that you can't update them the way you can a web page or any other online documentation. The result is that most leading edge computer books are out of date almost before they are printed. Unfortunately, The Complete FreeBSD, published by O'Reilly, is no exception. Inevitably, a number of bugs and changes have surfaced. The Complete FreeBSD has been through a total of five editions, including its predecessor Installing and Running FreeBSD. Two of these have been reprinted with corrections. I maintain a series of errata pages. Start at http://www.lemis.com/errata-4.html to find out how to get the errata information. Note also that the book has now been released for free download in PDF form. Instead of downloading the changed pages, you may prefer to download the entire book. See http://www.lemis.com/grog/Documentation/CFBSD/ for more information. Have you found a problem with the book, or maybe something confusing?

Re: Trunking connections

I came up with a hack that has worked well for us. We have a frac-T1 line (12/24 ths) that is very reliable, but costs ~$600/month and only gets about 70KB/sec. We also have a connection from the local cable company; it's not terribly reliable, but it's only $40/month, and gets 460KB/sec. I setup squid proxy with the option tcp outgoing address 12.x.x.x where the address is that of the cable NIC. Then configured ipfw to forward any packets with the 12' address to the cable gateway. We get very fast proxied speed for web browsing, ftp, and other bulk transfers. But the regular traffic still goes over the T1 line. Sorta kludgy, but since I'm no routing expert, I was pleased with the results :) -Wayne ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Well, if you're just trying to upgrade to 5.5, there's no need to upgrade all your ports in between, and you'll save a lot of time that way. Quickest of all is to do a binary upgrade direct to 5.5, of course. Kris pgphDl0UyvKel.pgp Description: PGP signature
